Get the Ayesha move. One of the hardest ones for me. Handstand Deadlift Just practice more pole. For some reason, I'm just not motivated much anymore. I started about a year ago.
I'm a brand-newbie to pole, so my goals are quite simple: >>>Improve back flexibility (think Full King Pigeon Pose for yoga) >>>Improve front splits and actually get to my middle split >>>Improve upper body and core strength >>>Learn how to let the music guide me through freestyle "playtime"; give in to the music and let my mind turn off and just DANCE! My ultimate goal is, like so many others, to perform a Rainbow Marchenko. One day I WILL successfully perform that trick!
Well now that I have my own pole 1) save up for a year of pole lessons on here :D 2) get my strength up! Moves: fairy fireman Fireman with leg out Floater Pirouette Pose Spin to stand Viva Slide Walk down pole :)
Most replies include one thing or another for me. I really want to work on flow and overall performance. I really want to be bendy and flexy. Twisted grip dead lift and twisted grip air walk would be awesome. Getting closer!
My pole related goal is to get the physio's approval to start pole again. I miss it too much!
I'm going to be working on my inverts, middle splits, and a choreography for my hubby. I would also like to learn to combine pole and floor more. I hope to be able to perform publicly and to inspire other women to want to add pole fitness as a part of their fitness regimen. Hopefully I will be opening an Woman Only fitness center this year.

Good for you Fitqutie....
I've just acquired my own pole, and am trying to set basic goals for myself: 1. Keep poling consistently. With grad school using up a lot of time, I have to get up pretty early to fit in a workout. 2. Improve flexibility. My lower back is very tight if I don't stretch every morning, so flexibility and stretching is crucial. 3. Basic invert. Some consistency would be good. 4. Floorwork 5. Pole climb. I need to get the leg muscle back to do this well. 6. Grip. My skin is naturally dry, so I need to figure out how to stay on the pole when I climb and sit. 7. Gemini. I had just started learning this when I left for school, so I'm hoping I can master this by the end of the year.
I want to make it threw 1 hole song beautifully! I'm a beginner just 2 months in and I cant wait to be amazing at it!
i want: iron X, drops (like falling star) & freestanding handstands! handstands scare me even though i am strong enough to do them. drops scare me too :)
It has become ESSENTIAL that I master my twisty grip/cup grip ayesha/static v. I've had my elbow grip forever but for some reason resting all my weight on my hands while upside down FREAKS me out. I CAN do it, for a second, but I just avoid practicing it, and thus have never been able to do it reliably. It's getting ridiculous. I've been poling for 5 yrs, I can do other moves of the same advanced level, I've just to ally skipped training these, which is starting to be a problem - so many cool new moves like the MarionAmber/Iron Maiden and deadliest require the ayesha. :( rrrr. Other than that, I want to start competing again... I kind of set myself the challenge of entering MPDA... but now that its actually this year, it's seeming more and more unattainable.... Will see.... :S :)
I really want to acquire the pole instructors certification and open a studio where I live. I am so passionate about sharing the gifts of aerial acrobatics with anyone who wants to learn. I am so thankful for studioveena.com I recommend it any and everybody. Optimistically I know its just money to acquire to launch everything so I am just taking it one day at a time. Lately in social media people have tagged me to various material, inboxed me, and even went to some extremes to show up at my home in efforts to learn this craft. At times I know i create the pressure to achieve the goal because of those moments but I am working on that. Outside of the licensing I really would love to get in some more studios, try doubles routines, learn more advanced techniques and participate in a pole event!
Janeiro, batwing, super pain to name a few
I had to take breaks through 2013 because I had to get another certification for work and I also had a weak shoulder, so I didn't really get a chance to practice or learn new tricks. So I just want to be able to actually do a routine that I'm happy with sharing and to get more inverts. I'm still working on King Pigeon too. I've been doing this for 3 years and I feel like I'm still brand spanking new. *Sigh*.
To get myself back on the pole and maybe get some moves I've always dreamed of. Invert would be my biggest goal. Maybe some more flexibility too :)
